lr seems that the Name medical registration
bill, for the veto Of which Mr.. Blaine Is held
responsible, was strongly opposed by the
spiritualists ho are veryipfiuential in Maine.
The correspondent Of the New York Herald
says that Mr.. Blaine was afraid that the bill
would make trouble In the Republican party
and might lead TO its defeat in Maine next
year and he and Mr. Joseph Ii. Manly pre-
vailed on Governor Bodewell 70 withdraw
his signature already affixed and veto the
bill 1t was approved by Governor Bode-

then went to dinner. After leaving Tor his
home he was followed aud interviewed by
several prominent gentlemen, and As q
result returned to Augusta, mutiliated the
record in the office OF the secretary OF state
and then vetoed the bill. The Maine Medi.
cal association has concluded to sink poll
